Day 21: Inspired by a color

Ok ok ok. I am sorry for posting so late. Today was one of those days. You know, I did my nails, walked around the city, got completely side tracked. Anywho this is the third and last section of the 30 Day Nail Polish Challenge.

The color that inspired me today was It's Alive by China Glaze. Obviously Frankenstein came to mind because I am a huge huge huge horror fanatic. It was hard to photography this manicure but I tried my hardest.

Base color: China Glaze It's Alive (2)

Stamp color: Konad black

It's kind of hard to see the stitching. 

I love this manicure. Next time I do it, I will try placing the stitches in different places.

A better shot of it! Mickey looks evil!

Til tomorrow my pretties!

Additonal: Kiss Rhinestones

Orly: Ancient Jade

Ancient Jade is not a unique color to be honest. But I still need to have it in my collection.

This color came out with Orly’s Spring 2011 Precious Collection.

It's a gorgeous green creme color.

The formula is so heavenly! This is one coat. No streaking. No VNL.

Perfection!!

Just a quick konadicure to spice it up (far from creative.)

Any tips on how to be more creative with manicures?

MAC: Girls Will Be Girls

Girls Will Be Girls came out in 2008 for the MAC Fafi Collection. It's pink with coral pearl. Delicious. I love how over the top girly this nail polish is. I am an extremely pale person and it looks great against my tone but I think it would look better against darker tones.

Here is an intentionally blurred photo so you can see the pearl. <3__<3

Gorgeous!!

So of course, I can't stand not hanging something else on top of the nail color.

Soooooooooo I did this:

 I thought it would make it girlier but for some reason I do not like it at all.

Plus, LOOK!!!, shrinkage (teehee).

For the first time ever!

I am not a fan of this konadicure fail bomb. Opinions?

Hard Candy: Sky

Hard Candy Sky is a gorgeous baby blue with blue shimmer (look at my index finger in the picture).The first coat of this color was patchy and left some balding towards the cuticle bed. When I applied the second coat, there was no more patchiness and no more balding. The formula is a bit on the thick side but it's nothing to worry about it.  I got this color at Walmart for $5, I think.

I had extra time today before so I decided to spruce up this manicure by adding stamping.

This is my first attempt at layering and I must say, I did a pretty good job. 

Pardon the messiness, my lens is a macro lens and picks up any imperfection. 

I see this done a lot with nude/neutral colors. 

I love this konadicure

Plates used: Konad M57 and Konad M71

Konadicure: Leafy Blues

I love love love konadicures; especially since I am no good at traditional nail art.

I am surprised at how much I loved this mani. It has to be my favorite to date.

So I had to cut off all my nails. Something odd was happening with them. They were splitting on the sides. I think me filing the sides a bit caused them to do that. Womp womp. I hope they grow back fast!
